LOL. You could do purchases of the month for each, er, month.
Anyway,
Diana Krall - a night in paris
Joss Stone - soul sessions (Is it right that according to the sleeve notes some of these tracks were recorded in a day?)

James Lavelle, Romania 026.
Its good.

Syntax - Meccano Mind.
It's excellent, if you like the poppier end of the Underworld/Fluke crossover. Vocals are a bit like Rob Dougan, which is a shame.
Sixtoo - Antagonist Survival Kit (and the instrumental one as well).
Outstanding, absolutely outstanding.

Tomasz Stanko Quintet, Suspended Night. Lovely chamber jazz. A lot of the reviews have it pegged as similar to Kind of Blue, but it's more comtemorary than that. Some of it feels like a close relative to EST and the trumpet has a Kenny wheeler like tone - must be the ECM studio effect.

GU026 is really good, but not worth having if you have already got WWIII, IMHO.
The first GU CD is very similar to the first CD on WWIII, with about half the tracks being the same (and in the same order). The second CD is slightly darker and harder, and is most like that 3am>5am slot in a decent club. If you know what I mean. Not quite head down mindless boogie, but getting there.
If you don't have WWIII, then it's well worth having. If you do, then be warned about the first CD.

ag,
ta for taking the time to reply..
The GU25 set (deep dish) was brilliant - how would you compare the James lavelle set to this (I know you have the gu25 set)?
questions questions??

GU026 is very different - GU025 is where prog house has, erm, progressed to and I thought whilst it was good it was a little tired. GU026 is good, but could probably have existed a year ago in terms of it's style - it's also darker and dirtier than GU025.
I very much doubt that either will be played as much as Deep Dish - Moscow (GU021 I think).

This is amazing on pink vinyl
Have you figured out what "Icicle" is about yet?? I love "Yes Anastacia" too...
My last CD was Talkie Walkie by Air, but since it's actually NOT a CD (it won't play in this computer for a start) I'd have to say that Minus' "Haldor Laxness" was the last PROPER CD (rather than Corrupt Data) I bought...

(A happy DS, seeing that I have won an EBay auction for a record I have after for 5 years, Koenig Cylinders 2!!)
Perhaps there woould be 30,000 record shop assistants out of a job if we all shopped non-virtual shopping?

Cinematic Orchestra: Everyday
Cat Power: You are Free
Both is a pretty decent sale at the soul-less Amazon. A lot of Ninja Tunes stuff for 6.99 a go: don't often see that sort of thing in sales. I don't ever feel I've had the whole experience when getting cds on line, but these were good prices.
